Mighty Switch Force HD Headed To Wii U With Redesigned Sprites

WayForward Technologies are bringing their first Nintendo 3DS game, Mighty Switch Force, to the Wii U as an eShop download. Nintendo Power magazine has the first details on Mighty Switch Force HD, along with the first screenshot:

If that looks a little different from the 3DS version of Mighty Switch Force, it’s because Mighty Switch Force HD has redrawn sprites and WayForward are brainstorming new features for it as well. Here’s a comparison of the sprites from the 3DS (left) and Wii U (right) versions:

Mighty Switch Force HD will be ready for the Wii U launch. WayForward also confirm that they’re working on more download games for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. Other downloadable games that will be ready for the Wii U launch are listed here.

I’m getting a Wii U at some point, but man, the Wii U is nothing but ports and remakes. Disregard everything not a port or remake, kind of like those of you who disregard any and all Vita games that aren’t ports or remakes.

I love WayForward but it’s not worth getting a 3DS for a ten dollar game, and the Wii U is going to be no better a case. None of my friends own the former and nobody is planning on grabbing the latter yet, either. I’d love to play Switch Force myself, and for once be able to recommend one of the company’s games to my friends and show support like I always want to.

Guys, you brought Flip Champs to PSN. Why stop there? :( And how has none of this stuff popped up on Steam yet?

There’s always Bloodrayne Betrayal… (which has, as usual, a killer soundtrack. The second half that was done in Famitracker is bloody amazing).
